Chemical Structure

9,10-Dichloro-2,6(7)-bis(bromomethyl)anthracene CAS 1216907-09-3 chemical structure

Description

The occurrence of 9,10-Dichloro-2,6(7)-bis(bromomethyl)anthracene is closely related to chlorine/bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.

9,10-Dichloro-2,6(7)-bis(bromomethyl)anthracene (CAS 1216907-09-3), molecular formula C15H9BrCl2C2H5Br and molecular weight 449.01 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.

Structurally, 9,10-Dichloro-2,6(7)-bis(bromomethyl)anthracene (C15H9BrCl2C2H5Br) contains chlorine/bromine substitution, a polycyclic aromatic system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 9.0, corresponding to approximately 9 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 449.01 g/mol, it falls into the moderately-high-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
